This doctor is already middle-aged, and he's only just started practicing medicine.

Chapter 210 This kind of manipulation is unavoidable

Shanghai is far from Longxian, and Chengdu is also far from Longxian.

Fortunately, we live in the information age. Not to mention county hospitals, even township health centers may have their own official websites or WeChat accounts, where you can find information about the hospital and its staff.

Except for a very few county hospitals, Du Lianshan never imagined that he would open the official website of a county hospital in a remote mountainous county in Hunan Province.

Moreover, during the search process, Du Lianshan even changed his 'name' several times before finally accessing the hospital's official website.

[XXTJZMZ Zhizhou Longshan County People's Hospital]

He did find Lu Cheng's name in the personnel introductions in the emergency department, but finding it made no difference to not finding it at all.

Lu Cheng's information is very limited: Lu Cheng, attending physician, with a bachelor's degree from Han City University.

Nothing else.

Du Lianshan was not unaware of Han City University, but as far as he knew, the clinical medicine program and affiliated teaching hospitals of Han City University were somewhat inferior to those of Xiangya Hospital and Union Hospital that he had come into contact with.

How could Lu Cheng, an undergraduate student, remotely operate so many things?
Moreover, although Lu Cheng emphasized that there was no misunderstanding, Du Lianshan felt that something was amiss, and there must be some misunderstanding involved.

However, Lu Cheng revealed too little information, and Du Lianshan couldn't find any clues at all.

Lu Cheng's reply was curt and contained no other useful information.

"What's going on with this thing? I can't get through to it at all. This shouldn't be happening," Du Lianshan wondered.

He never imagined that the title of professor of hand surgery at Huashan Hospital would one day be so useless.

Even top professors from prestigious hospitals like Jishuitan Hospital, Beijing Third Hospital, and Shanghai Sixth Hospital, or senior masters of traditional Chinese medicine, wouldn't treat Du Lianshan so coldly when he called them.

Of course, Lu Cheng's statement is not wrong either.

Lu Cheng is an emergency room doctor. If he doesn't plan to go into hand surgery, he really doesn't need to pay attention to a hand surgeon like you.

Moreover, the road is long and arduous, and Lu Cheng has encountered a benefactor who is unwilling to curry favor with him, so you should not hold a grudge because of this.

Being realistic actually reduces a lot of constraints and interpersonal relationships.

……

If the audience could notice such a strange result in the competition, then the organizers, including the National Microsurgery Branch and Hand Surgery Branch, as well as the Sichuan Provincial Medical Association's Minimally Invasive Surgery Branch and Hand Surgery Branch, which were actually in charge, must have noticed it as well.

Furthermore, the organizers were actually more concerned than the audience about whether there was any inside story behind the competition.

After all, this was the first national microsurgical skills competition, and the fact that it could be held in Chengdu was thanks to the efforts of the Sichuan Provincial Health and Wellness System.

If such a competition is deemed to have involved an unfair 'incident,' the organizers and sponsoring units will lose face.

Once a problem is identified, the first step is to confront it directly.

The participants from Xiangya Hospital achieved such "unconventional" results in the vascular and nerve suturing track that they were naturally the first to be summoned for questioning.

The real experts don't directly ask questions to the contestants; Xiangya Hospital has its own professors attending 'academic conferences'!
……

"Professor Tan, the young people from your hospital in the competition next door are quite energetic!" The speaker was Professor Tao Zexi, Director of the Department of Hand Surgery at West China Hospital and Chairman of the Sichuan Provincial Hand Surgery Association.

Vascular surgery and neuro-suturing have always been major competitive arenas in hand surgery, closely related to and interdependent with the most popular functional reconstruction techniques in hand surgery today.

While the Department of Hand Surgery at West China Hospital may not be the most prestigious or renowned, it is still eager to participate in the highest-level competition.

Tan Zhongyuan was chatting with Professor Tian Wen from Jishuitan Hospital when Professor Tao's sudden approach made their expressions become somewhat subtle.

Tian Wen feigned ignorance and asked cheerfully, "Professor Tao, what happened next door? Did someone come and cause trouble?"

In the eyes of such professors, the skills competition for young physicians is just like children playing "house," which only slightly represents the teaching capabilities of different teaching hospitals and the reserve of young talents, and does not have much impact on the overall situation.

Professor Tao quickly shook his head and replied, "No, Director Tian, ​​it's because Director Tan's team is so excellent."

"The results in the competition were somewhat unexpected. It truly lives up to the reputation of the century-old Xiangya Hospital."

Tian Wen is the director of the Hand Surgery Department at Jishuitan Hospital and also serves as the chairman of the National Hand Surgery Association. She is a true leader among leaders in the field of hand surgery.

Tan Zhongyuan smiled and asked, "Director Tian, ​​Professor Tao is clearly targeting me, he's being sarcastic. What exactly is going on?"

"Professor Tao? Did those people from our hospital cause trouble for the competition?"

Tao Zexi continued to shake his head: "No, it just makes the competition more prestigious and more entertaining."

"Director Tian, ​​it's like this, Xiangya Hospital..." Tao Zexi then gave a brief report on the competition results from the neighboring hospital.

Tian Wen, a veteran actress herself, looked surprised and curious upon hearing this: "Professor Tan, how do you manage your team?"

"I really need to learn a lot from you."

"It's possible that one person's good grades are accidental, but when several people get good grades at the same time, it can't be explained by mere chance."

Tan Zhongyuan said, "Director Tian, ​​you're giving me a warning too."

"This matter is really just a combination of luck and coincidence."

Tao Zexi felt relieved and hurriedly asked, "I suppose Professor Tan knows the whole story, then I'm at ease. This makes it much easier to explain to the outside world."

Professor Tan Zhongyuan is a well-known figure nationwide. With his opinion endorsed, the opinions of that group of young people can be completely suppressed.

It was just a casual chat, with occasional listening to other colleagues and friends share their experiences, so Tan Zhongyuan gave a rather detailed reply, providing comprehensive reasons, evidence, and his own experiences.

Although there were details and facts, Tian Wen and Tao Zexi still found it somewhat surreal.

It's hard to believe that a doctor from a county hospital could cause such a commotion.

Tian Wen immediately grasped the crux of the matter: "Director Tan, may I ask you a question?"

Tan Zhongyuan is the chairman of the Hunan Provincial Hand Surgery Association and also the director of the Hand Surgery Department. Calling him Director Tan Zhongyuan is a more formal way of addressing him.

"Since you say that Dr. Lu Cheng is the originator of this technique, why doesn't he participate in the competition?"

"You can't say things like 'I'm from a bad family' or 'I'm not qualified to participate'—that's nonsense."

Tan Zhongyuan immediately said, "That's impossible. Professor Tao and Director Tian, ​​you can both find out which teams from Hunan Province are participating this time."

"Dr. Lu Cheng made it to the national competition, but he withdrew from the competition voluntarily due to personal reasons."

"We pressed for the specific reasons, and Dr. Lu said that he simply couldn't find the time recently. His workplace is facing some rather unusual issues."

Tao Zexi joked irritably, "What's so special that you're not even participating in the national competition?"

Tan Zhongyuan suspected that Tao Zexi was still being sarcastic or mocking, but he had no substantial evidence.

He calmly replied, "Two reasons. First, Dr. Lu Cheng is an emergency room doctor."

"Secondly, the dean of Dr. Lu Cheng's unit recently contacted the national inspection team to file a complaint."

With the county hospital, the inspection team, and the emergency room doctor's buffs all maxed out, it's understandable that Lu Cheng couldn't participate in the competition.

Professor Tian Wen could understand why he didn't participate in the competition, but she couldn't understand what to ask, so she blurted out, "Professor Tan, you said he's an emergency room doctor? What's going on?"

Tan Zhongyuan replied with a smile, "Director Tian, ​​I've only been appointed as the chairman of the academic committee; I can't manage so many personnel matters."

"Dr. Lu Cheng was an orthopedic surgeon before July of this year."

"It was only after that that I heard about such a skilled person, and I tried to persuade him many, many times, but to no avail."

The personnel management authority for doctors at the county hospital rests with the hospital's personnel department; what does it have to do with me?

In small towns, who dares to say they can navigate the complexities of interpersonal relationships perfectly?
Even for them, all they can do is ignore everyone, and what they get in return is no one paying attention to them. You're far from the emperor's reach, so what can you do?

"Heartbroken?" Professor Tian Wen, a rather fashionable person, deliberately mispronounced the words.

Tan Zhongyuan nodded: "There should be some ideas."

"Director Tan, why don't you do some work? It's normal for a young person to be straightforward and express their emotions directly, but when problems arise, you can try to resolve them and offer advice."

Tian Wen's tone became serious: "It's a waste to keep such a promising talent in the emergency department!"

"Our medical community."

Tan Zhongyuan shook his head and interrupted, "No, Director Tian, ​​we're not even on the moral high ground."

Tian Wen and Tao Zexi were both stunned: "Why?"

Can Lu Cheng still hold onto the moral high ground?
"This young man has a very strong pioneering ability. After the tendon suturing technique, he came up with a suturing technique for solid organs, which is of great significance for expanding spleen-preserving surgery." "Moreover, he was the first person the emergency department of Xiangya No. 2 Hospital noticed. In short, in clinical practice, saving lives comes first, then treating diseases!" Tan Zhongyuan said helplessly.

If this matter doesn't get out, then you can secretly steal, take, or abduct Lu Cheng.

But things have already blown up, and Lu Cheng himself has expressed his desire to develop his career in the emergency department. If you still want to make any underhanded moves, then that would be against the rules and morality.

The "guns and cannons" in the emergency room can kill you.

The emergency department has the highest rate of medical disputes, and none of the people of the same age who hang out there have a good temper.

Most people, unless they can't avoid it, really don't want to mess with it.

Furthermore, it certainly doesn't stand up to moral principles.

Tan Zhongyuan meant one thing, but Tian Wen and Tao Zexi interpreted it as something else entirely.

In previous years, they wouldn't have paid any attention to the young physician competition. It didn't matter who got the best results; it was just a minor competition among young people.

Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years.

You can encounter true geniuses in any well-known organization across the country.

However, the results of this competition were somewhat unusual, which led Tian Wen and others to receive immediate feedback on the results from each track at the competition venue.

Be original and unconventional!

Nearly perfect score.

That was truly innovative.

"Are the first-place winners of the other two tracks also in some way related to this Dr. Lu Cheng?"

"What's going on here, Director Tao?" Tian Wen started to wind Tao Zexi up.

Any national competition is generally held in the name of a national academic branch, but the actual host is the provincial-level academic branch.

Tao Zexi's forehead wrinkles deepened for a moment, then he said helplessly, "Director Tian, ​​this wasn't our doing. What can you do when you encounter someone like this?"

"Are you saying we can't be innovative anymore?"

Tan Zhongyuan then added meaningfully, "Clinical practice doesn't allow for arbitrary innovation, but innovation in competitions shouldn't be illegal, right?"

As soon as Tan Zhongyuan said this, Tian Wen and Tao Zexi immediately looked at this seasoned old charlatan.

Upon hearing this, it's clear that Tan Zhongyuan and Lu Cheng have a close relationship, and it's likely that Tan Zhongyuan had anticipated all of this before the competition.

"Director Tan, you didn't even give any advance notice of this situation. Your brother is quite cunning."

"If you had just said a few words in advance, we would have had more time to react," Tao Zexi complained.

He then said to Professor Tian Wen, "Director Tian, ​​I think this time the results are even more surprising and can stimulate everyone's innovative ability, so that China's medical technology can flourish even more."

"After all, flowers grown in a greenhouse, teams that always stay in their comfort zone, cannot withstand any disruption."

"what do you think?"

Tian Wen certainly didn't dare to refute Professor Tao Zexi's words: "You are the ones who are in charge of handling the competitions you are hosting."

"The real results should certainly be given."

"Director Tan, is there a chance to share Dr. Lu Cheng's contact information? I'd like to see if I can persuade him."

"If such original talents can change their obsessions, it will be of great benefit to the overall development of our hand surgery."

Tan Zhongyuan immediately agreed: "No problem. If you can persuade Dr. Lu Cheng to change his mind, I will definitely come to your door to express my gratitude."

Tian Wen glared at Tan Zhongyuan, pretending not to understand what he said.

In my heart, I thought, "The person I'm advising might not be the one I'm advising you."

……

Xie Yuan'an's academic performance was so outstanding that her relationship with Professor Xie Xiao of the Department of Hand Surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital was quickly exposed.

Therefore, some people were also trying to find out what was going on with Professor Xie Xiao.

"My daughter had a good opportunity this time, and she was willing to spend time learning. Other than that, there's nothing special about her!" Xie Xiao stated her position clearly.

Professor Zhong Junyun from Union Hospital is nowhere to be found, and another colleague stayed in Wuhan and didn't come. Xie Xiao had nowhere to hide and could only confront her colleagues in both non-hand surgery and hand surgery head-on.

"Dr. Lu Cheng's contact information? I'm not at liberty to give that out. Dr. Lu has been quite busy lately and doesn't have much contact with people." Xie Xiao declined several people's requests for her contact information.

"Yes, these were all pre-ordered. Before this, the professors at Xiangya No. 2 Hospital in Hunan Province, where Dr. Lu Cheng works, had already verified the authenticity of these techniques with Dr. Lu Cheng."

"We are already working on the research project."

"What's the specific progress of the project? I'm not entirely clear on that. You could try contacting a professor at Xiangya No. 2 Hospital; I don't know the details..."

"Hey, what does that dog girl know about general surgery? She's just a complete idiot. I keep her around so she won't make any big mistakes."

Trying to lure Xie Yuan'an to the general surgery department from Xie Xiao is a fool's errand. Xie Xiao knows her daughter's abilities very well and wouldn't dare let her go.

"..."

"Xiao Lu, you're getting a lot of phone calls. What did you do? It's like you've stirred up a hornet's nest."

"Who is it?" Zhang Tiesheng asked as Lu Cheng answered the phone one call after another, only to reject the caller after another.

While my ears were tired of hearing about it, I became even more curious about what Lu Cheng was doing.

“Some teachers I don’t know,” Lu Cheng replied as he walked into his office after finishing another call.

"Why would a teacher I don't know call me? Don't tell me he's some kind of associate professor or professor or something," Zhang Tiesheng said, scratching his head with a sour tone.

Lu Cheng didn't reply, he just nodded.

Zhang Tiesheng pushed up his dark circles and continued to scratch his scalp vigorously: "Xiao Lu, what are you doing? No, what did you do?"

"Is it just doing what I'm doing now?" Lu Cheng replied with a smile.

Zhang Tiesheng, of course, roughly knew what Lu Cheng was doing, and secretly asked, "Little Lu, isn't this stitching technique you came up with quite ingenious?"

“I heard from friends that they saw Professor Chen Song in Jilin City.”

Chen Song is just an associate professor. There are certainly quite a few people who know him, but not that many.

He deliberately concealed his words so that no one in Jilin City would notice, but since he had appeared at the State People's Hospital for surgery, it was impossible for him to remain completely silent.

Zhang Tiesheng was well-informed. When he first heard someone say that Professor Chen Song, who was supposed to have returned to Xiangya No. 2 Hospital, was in Jilin City, he thought it might be Lu Cheng's doing.

The fact that an associate professor was willing to stay and work on a research project must be significant; the practical value of this technique was even greater than I had anticipated.

“Brother Zhang, I will definitely share everything with you when you’re learning,” Lu Cheng declared.

Zhang Tiesheng said, "Xiao Lu, that's not what I meant."

"Well, since this topic is so challenging, what are you going to say?"

"Hey, let me be a little shameless. Tell me, is there any chance I could pick up some scraps?"

"Any kind of garbage will do, as long as it gets published in a provincial journal, then you'll be considered a special academic talent in our hospital."

The county hospital doesn't emphasize scientific research; does that mean they don't value it, or that nobody wants to publish?

I can't send it out; I have no idea how to send it!

Lu Cheng refused decisively but tactfully: "Brother Zhang, I'm currently being guided by others, and the target journals are probably not provincial or core journals, so I can't put your name on them yet."

Zhang Tiesheng's face was deeply wrinkled, and he said, "I didn't mean now."

"Next year or the year after is not too late."

Zhang Tiesheng said, "Xiao Lu, stop talking. From now on, you are my elder brother and my teacher. No one else's opinion matters."

"Brother Lu!"

“cibucibu…cibucibu…” Zhang Tiesheng rolled his greasy tongue, making a rather irritating licking sound.
